CDG-Gsus4-GEmAD
Well we're living here in Allentown
AmDG
And they're closing all the factories down
EmABm
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time
AGD/F#D/A - A
Filling out forms - Standing in line
EmAD
Well our fathers fought the Second World War
AmDG
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
EmABm
Met our mothers in the USO
AGD/F#D/A - A
Asked them to dance, Danced with them slow
EmAD
And we're living here in Allentown
F/AG/BC
But the restlessness was handed down
AmDEmG/BCD
And it's getting very hard to stay
CDG/B 2x
CDG-Gsus4-GEmAD
Well we're waiting here in Allentown
AmDG
For the Pennsylvania we never found
EmABm
For the promises our teachers gave
AGD/F#A
If we worked hard , If we behaved
EmAD
So the graduations hang on the wall
AmDG
But they never really helped us at all
EmABm
No they never taught us what was real
AGD/F#A
Iron and coke - And chromium steel
EmAD
And we're waiting here in Allentown
F/AG/BC
But they've taken all the coal from the ground
AmDEmG/BCD
And the union people crawled away
CDG/BCDFG/FF
Every child had a pretty good shot
FG/FBb/F
To get at least as far as their old man got
FG/FF
But something happened on the way to that place
FG/F
They threw an American flag in our face
CDG/B 2x
CDGGsus4GEmAD
Well I'm living here in Allentown
F/AG/BC
And it's hard to keep a good man down
AmDEmG/BCD
But I won't be getting up today - ay - ay
CDG/BCD
